“The first time around, we didn’t have the fashion world really aware of what we were doing,” Ben Stiller told the crowd–many of whom were from the fashion world–at the event.

“And Anna Wintour did put Derek Zoolander in Vogue, which was an amazing thing for Derek,” he joked. “And then, this time around, [she] was a huge part of making the movie happen, an incredible partner and supporter of the process of making the movie.”

It was Anna Wintour who coordinated Tuesday’s red carpet event ahead of the premiere. She enlisted models including Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid, as well as celebrities including Jennifer Aniston and hubby Justin Theroux (Theroux co-wrote the Zoolander sequel). Justin Bieber was on the invitation list, but had to rehearse for the upcoming Grammy Awards instead.
